Can either man let go of their past without self-destructing?</p><p>The insanity of the Great War is finally over. But for Harry Brigandshaw raw grief and anger consumes his every waking hour.

An unexpected letter awaits Harry's return and yet again his life is thrown into turmoil!</p><p>Forced to return to England, Harry immerses himself in 1920 London where beautiful, seductive women snare the wealthy, cut-throat deals are made, and hedonism plays out in the supper clubs and theatres. Conversely, Barend wends his way to the gold mines of South Africa where violence and booze are the order of the day.</p><p>But, Elephant Walk and Africa are always calling where only the mad go out in the midday sun. Both men are lured back and the madness is about to begin all over again.</p><p><em>There's always a price to pay.
